As far as I know I' ve always had pets .

The very first , I still remember , was an " Easter - chicken ", got it when being with my grandparents because    my mom and dad were both working .Then a bird came ...and a  cat , which my granddad didn't like because he had pigeons ! Finally the dog , a silvergrey poodle .They all lived their lives although I'm not quite sure anymore what concerns the chicken . But I surely loved them all !

When I got married the story continued : a Briard first ,  then a Giant schnauzer and finally the first black and silver miniature .She reminded me , in coat and colour , of my poodle ! She had a long, happy petlife , never had to be bothered about showing .

So another miniature joined the family and she was who it started with , Maere Minne Line  , in 1987 .

To make a long story shorter , I just want to thank all the people who made it possible for me to be , to breed, to own and to accomplish what I wanted and loved .

Thank you :  Peter Newman , gratefull to have met you as the first best friend and help .
                   Barry Day, always willing to listen ,  talk and advise.
                   Miss Morisson - Bell
                   Carol Daniels

                   Kurt Garmaker
                   Janice Ramel
                   Carole Weinberger and Frank
                   Janet Taylor

                   Cyriel De Meulenaer , no matter if we agreed or not , you gave me a lot to think about and to learn from .

                   A special reminder goes to the late Carol Garmaker , who only needed a few words to understand
                   what I wanted ,  to say what was necessary and also for trusting me .
                   I still miss her in my doggy life .

As what I breed mainly goes back to the american lines , most of the honour goes to them .

Thank you to the people here and abroad for still being friends and the nice time we always have together .

I'm proud to say many of my dogs have international , european or world titles , also proud to see they are in the pedigrees of many other successful breeders .
